Did New Family Guy 9/11 Skit Go too Far? For Some it Did-

So in the latest family guy who is no stranger to 911 like sattire, has raised some eyebrows with the plot involving stewie
and brian possibly being able to stop the attacks or let them happen. They chose to let it happen. Pretty funny skit imo. I was not offended myself,
was just wondering if other ATSers thought like me.
Heres the link to the story I will try to embed video shortly

Well....I laughed. Maybe that is a sign that we are finally starting to heal a bit. Yes, it is a very sensitive subject. But the fact we can laugh
just a little.... Maybe it shows we are starting to heal some.

I don't understand why people are so darn sensitive. Look, I get it if it hurts some people's feelings. But if they don't like it, there's this
wonderful thing called a remote that can turn off the tv (imagine that?). If it offends you, don't watch it. But not everything is a personal dig.
People take things way to personally.

Well that's my rant for the day. Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.

Gone too far, how? By pretending two cartoon characters could've stopped 9-11? And even if they did take it to the next level, HOW would they have
stopped it?
I don't understand why you made this thread?

I think Seth should write a skit to show how ridiculous it is for real people to even THINK a plane crashed into the Pentagon. But that's just me.

I'm with Stewie on this one. "It doesn't look good out of context"... but I didn't find it particularly offensive. I mean... it's not that
they wished 9/11 to happen, but that their meddling in the past caused a change in their own timeline, which they went back and restored (correct me
if I'm wrong).

That's not really the same thing.

So... is it clever and funny? Not really... but offensive? No, it's not really that either. Inappropriate? Maybe.

Its really unbelievable how EVERY thread I post A good percentage of people who are alledgedly here to "deny ignorance" can not even read!!!!! If
you read the ENTIRE paragraph of the op (i know, its alot to take in) you would see that I WAS NOT OFFENDED BY THIS SKIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was posting an article that said that people were upset at it. NOT ME!!!!!!!!!! Please learn to read the thread you are responding to and if you
dont have an intrest in the thread then dont even click on it.

Again if you read the link or watched the whole video, you would have seen the outrage was that they could have stopped 911 from happening but decided
not to. I didnt think it was that hard to ascertain
